I'm an apparel design student (undergrad, though) and I have the opportunity to take costuming classes in the next few years. What you're doing is really inspiring. <br /><br />sewcollegiatechristine.blogspot.comChristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17617245981188400470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1269572143374898969.post-62967651099923212132012-05-21T11:11:07.752-04:002012-05-21T11:11:07.752-04:00Beautiful pictures.

But I used them before for fully boned stays and I'm not sure that I want to trust the reeds for half-boned stays, fearing that they might break. I'd love to hear how the reed works for your pair of stays! It's certainly cheaper than using steel boning - and much lighter weight!Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997514607291740440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1269572143374898969.post-28683220231122082502012-05-18T08:05:21.789-04:002012-05-18T08:05:21.789-04:00Re your dilemma with steel boning vs cable ties......Re your dilemma with steel boning vs cable ties... what about reeds?
